building there were a great many small pieces of paper and there were blank void and nd without mark save a stale stal legend which was written across the top of one side and the picture of a great man near it itin itin itin in one corner And these papers had as companions lots and lots and lots of other papers One day a man bought some of these papers and took them to his little den deep I down in the cellar of another great building And he did work e exceeding long and ann hard and he hedd hedd hedd dd put on them strange marks albeit they looked like unto the picture of sharp and vivid lightning And then the man the big hig prall proud man now took them back to the first great building And that big innocent man had faith in inthe inthe inthe the good old saying II Cast your bread upon the w waters and after many days it shall return unto you And verily this i proud man thought all that day of the thel l bread that should return to him even r with big chunks of eagle easle placed upon it And the night was long to the big bigman bigman man hungry for his feast of eagle And Andl l f the sun came up and it was day The proud man watched and waited and the theman theman r. r man in grey uniform came and went but brought no bread for him Then the big hig bigman bigman man was not so big And the second time the man in grey appeared and one onex back hack and it x of the little papers come cone bore the mess message ge written in a strange ton tongue ue II Reserve me four seats for Friday Friday Friday Fri Fri- day evening which h being interpreted means I I will give you one big eagle F The little-big little man became big once f more and his heart swelled with pride t And it was the evening of the second and the and the morning of the third d day y And f the big proud man watched for foi the grey a uniform it carne came but brought nothing f It came again hut but with no awakening light and the sun went do down n to keep from shedding tears at the once big now very little mans man's tears But the t evening came and br brought the eagle and f because we know things only by comparison comparison com com- i. i parison the eagle seemed a cartwheel w 1 And the little man man ate of the big eagle eaglet L until he did die of thankfulness that all t his bread had not sunk to the bottom of zit the sea Now crape hangs on the door door in the corner of the cellar PROFESSOR SOR MARSHALL MARSHALLS MARSHALL'S S LE LECTURE TURE i C r The lecture by Professor Mar Marshall Mars hall last Friday evening was fairly well attended t there being between and people
